Soul Calibur VI: General discussion

On the one hand I want more female characters because I am a degenerate and I love video games titties but on the other hand I don't want to be on the same side as people who think 'diversity' in video games is important.
I liked half your post
 
No it doesn't. Regular humans don't need to share all their superficial characteristics to empathize or identify with someone. Even calling it 'representation' is nonsensical. It's absurd to think that just because someone looks like you that that's in any way representative of who you are as a person. No character in any SoulCalibur game 'represents' me.

They definitely should put more tits and ass in the game though.

Culture or the inspirations behind a characters design play a role. If nothing else, what is more inspirational then seeing someone you identify with doing great things? There's more that goes into being human that just existing, we have layers, we have multitudes.
 
So the slots ARE DLC... *sigh* Welp nuthin' to be done about it. I really hope we get a Season 2 eventually though if the base roster's gonna be this small.

So odd that there's no unlockable characters aside from Inferno :/ Remember when fighting games like Tekken 3 and even past SC games had a number of unlocks that matched the number of base characters sometimes? I miss those times. Probably a budget issue more than anything though so I guess it can't be helped.
Those games had like 8 character starting rosters. SCVI would be the same if 11 characters were locked off arbitrarily.
I only played on normal ps4 and graphics were great if they made it even better thats great
Mmm... This game isn't impressive graphically really. Low-poly models, aliasing, really weird graining effects, and excessive DoF use make this game look more like a dolled-up SCV than a sequel.

It's a fighting game, height is an issue. However, boobs should be not xD anyway, I hope they'll stop trying to force bikinis and boob windows in the next game, they look out of place and I think most of the western fanbase agrees... a bit lame of an attempt at pulling in Japanese audience :(
On this board at least, I've been met with nothing more intelligible than "shut up sjw" when I mentioned every female characters' "enhancements" and how most new outfits for the girls are just skimpier versions of older ones. Taki's the only one showing less skin than SCI, and even then her outfit is now vacuum-sealed to her tits instead of fitting like normal fabric like SCI.
 
Will there be a thread dedicated solely to unlocks and easter eggs? That way we can have a definitive list before the datamining comes about.
 
I have to agree that this is the final build before release because some Move List names mainly in the RE section weren't listed properly before are now fixed.

As for that build that Namco streamed on Thursday. It was an older master build that had all the announced characters except Azwel(Maybe Namco Brazil really wanted ETC Mcfly & Kane Blueriver to not play Azwel at all because he was too strong in the TGS 2018 build as reported by @bigbrook ) That built was done after EVO Japan, but before E3. That explains the original title screen, Azwel's absence from the character select because he wasn't added yet, the full health hud change, & placeholder backgrounds for the other 9 stages.

Well to be fair, the screenshots of the movelist you showed are for two separate characters, the first Raph and the other is Cervantes.


@bigbrook thanks for the 4k confirm, speaking of Raph, how's Raph, did you manage to get a play/feel?
 
I feel like i am being attacked here.

Considering what you said a couple of pages ago about "not wanting to be on the same side as those who think diversity is important", I'm not surprised you identify with that lol.
Hey, diversity in culture, gender, sexuality means fuck all guys. But diversity in ass and tits so I can tug my totem pole while condemning "SJWs" for giving a shit about marginalised identities when my own identity has likely never been marginalised itself so I'm stuck in a bubble of privileged obliviousness? Cool beans dude! I'm so grown up and such a nice, empathetic person.
Look, I don't know where this problem comes from. But more often than not, this "forcing diversity gets in the way of a good story!" example falls flat on my ears, as a gay person who is still kind of struggling with their gender identity. Seeing myself represented on screen is important to me and gives me a chance to identify with characters and appreciate them to a larger extent than I would otherwise. It gives me happiness that the devs care about people like me and it allows me to immerse myself into the game more and have the game be way more important to me than it would have been without such representation. Considering my own personal experiences, idc what everyone else says. It's easy for you guys when you constantly see yourselves represented on screen and you are almost like the "norm" for the foundation of characters. But why don't you just take a look outside of your bubble for one moment, try to have some empathy and consider where the rest of us are coming from?
Anyway, I won't post about this topic again. I know it's derailing so I'll keep my mouth shut even if it kills me.

All of this being said, the number of females in the roster isn't a huge issue to me but I would like more. Overall, I just hope the DLC ends up having a few and that we get popular and varied characters more than anything else. I played NieR: Automata recently and I am now a staunch advocate for 2B.

No worries, Azwell does look fun and what you said about the guard traps peaked my interest.
I did hear in an interview (maybe okubo can't remember) that currently azwell is a little op and needs toning down.
I wonder what his weaknesses are.
